Like mentioned above, you don't need the "T".
I did add a brand new restrictor, but I relocated
it near the water pump, to hide it. Also, if it
was to break on the road, one could simply remove
it and there would be enough hose to attach
to the water pump, bypassing the restrictor.
I didn't re-use the hose sleeves or attachments.
With my ceramic coated Tri-Y's, they aren't necessary.
I figured that since I was going with the best hoses
that I could do better than the factory heater hose hardware:

The heater hose brackets are nice little billet parts from Summit.
The hoses aren't gonna move anywhere, and IMO, they look great!
I highly recommend the Samco Sport hose kit.
I used stainless lined band clamps from Summit,
as they are a high quality part.
